Leading computer hardware and electronics manufacturer Asus is set to launch a single-band wireless router.

The RT-N14UHP is a N300 router with a high power design that boosts wireless coverage by up to 300 per cent, said Asus in a statement.

The router features three detachable high-gain 9dBi antennas and adjustable output power, designed for users who need maximum coverage.

It also features a USB 2.0 port for sharing printers, files or a cellular internet connection.

Alternatively, users can plug a compatible 3G/4G (HSPA+) dongle into the USB port and use this to connect the device to the internet, instead of using the 10/100Mbit/s Ethernet WAN port.

It also supports Asus AiCloud, an embedded application that turns the device into a personal cloud server.

Other features include parental controls, network mapping and printer sharing. For users needing secure remote access to their home network, the router includes an easy-to-configure VPN server. - TradeArabia News Service
